Chapter 83

[Horn of Lilian]

This is a special horn containing Lilian’s unique mana, who preferred hiding over standing out like others.

Effect: It makes the user’s location undetectable within the casting space.

The Healthy God is invincible, and I am the God.

Thanks to the horn the Healthy God gave me long ago, I have remained safe until now.

“If I don’t make any mistakes, I won’t get caught, right?”

If I carefully avoided anything that could reveal my location, there was no way I’d ever be discovered.

This was truly a game-breaking item!

I thought.

– Woohh

“What?”

If it weren’t for the strange portal that suddenly appeared in a corner of my room.

– Clang

I immediately grabbed the shotgun I had propped up and took cover behind the bed.

[Restraint Shield] – 100p

That wasn’t enough, so I also brought in a bulletproof restraint shield to reinforce my defenses.

It was a good thing I spent more points on an expensive shield, just in case.

Even if some decent monsters sprang out from there, it would provide sufficient firepower to handle it.

“What’s going on? Nothing’s coming out.”

But after quite a while, nothing changed in the portal.

At most, the deep color resembling blood was ominous?

“Is this a one-way portal too?”

The rift only allowed entry until the wave burst.

Moreover, this portal, unlike the rift, didn’t seem to come with a headache or destroy buildings as it appeared.

With no hostile atmosphere in sight, I cautiously approached the portal.

“Can this be scanned too?”

Worried, I pulled up the system analysis window, and thankfully, information about the portal appeared.

[Teleportation Magic – Caster, Erzebet]

A teleportation magic portal leading to the abandoned castle Mariaaka.

Despite its ominous appearance, it turned out to be an ordinary portal.

Duration – 00:01:59

“Erzebet, the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire?”

The portal’s identity was the Disruption Deputy’s meddling.

The Deputy had installed a portal in my house.

What is this? Is it revenge for not paying the salary?

And there was even a time limit.

For some reason, I felt like I had to enter right away within the short duration.

“Why did they send this to me?”

Isn’t the abandoned castle Mariaaka the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire’s place?

How they found out the location was one thing, but I was puzzled as to why they sent this to me.

Jooddak*: What is this?

Jooddak*: (ominous portal meme)

Jooddak*: Please take it back!

I left a message in the admin chat.

But the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire remained silent.

Something must have definitely happened.

If not, the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire would not stop causing trouble like me.

“Ugh, still, going in there feels off.”

Going in there was just too much.

“If something really happened, wouldn’t I get wrecked if I went in?”

If the ultimate being in this world, the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire, can be taken down, then a shotgun won’t be nearly enough, right?

Above all, socializing is a reason for a ban.

It’s not like it’s because I’m too lazy or anything.

“Jookkiyahoo!”

Doing something out of character could lead to death.

A hermit like me suddenly jumping into a portal? That would lead to instant life-ending consequences.

I slipped back under my bed covers and continued reading my concept article.

No, that’s what I planned to do.

[The I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire has entered an indefinite suspension status.]

[Would you like to replace the Deputy?]

If it weren’t for this annoying notification ringing loudly.

“Hmmm…”

Indefinite suspension status.

The system affirmed my suspicion.

If I did nothing, the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire would remain unresponsive for a while.

“It’s hard to find a Deputy like the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire.”

20 hours of activity in a day.

Tracking disruption locations and reality bans.

It was truly a powerful suppressor of the Gallery of Annihilation.

The I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire was my lifeline and insurance, after all.

To resolve this, or at least to find out what happened, I thought the only way was to directly enter the portal before it closed.

Duration – 00:00:42

Duration – 00:00:35

As I pondered, time kept moving steadily.

At this rate, I might really have to replace the Deputy.

“Should I go in or not?”

As a safety-first person, I was deep in thought about whether to enter or not.

– Woohh

Suddenly, the Holy Sword hanging from the bunker ceiling approached me, emitting a bright light.

“Wait, that’s right. You were here?”

– Woohh

The Holy Sword from the Adrian Empire, which I received as tribute from the crown prince.

Moreover, besides the Holy Sword, the Dwarven breezeway fan, or rather the famous sword, approached as well.

And I had my beloved shotgun too!

“Hmmm, with this much, maybe it’s worth a shot?”

Even if some monster had taken down the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire, this should be enough to give it a go, right?

Besides, if things went south, I could always just put on a gas mask and unleash the chemical weapon.

Above all, it would be a shame for the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire to be sacrificed like this.

Duration – 00:00:12

“Ah, whatever.”

Before the time ran out, I threw myself into the portal.

As such, the scenery began to change naturally.

Instead of the calm room, I was met with an interior as red as blood, and a hallway of endless audience chambers spread before me.

Winning the first strike was essential in any fight.

I immediately aimed the shotgun I had in my embrace, ready to assert my dominance.

“Hands up, hands up! Move and I’ll shoot, slice, blow up, unleash chemical weapons, and initiate a nuclear explosion!!!”

Right as I yelled what sounded like a plain threat, jam-packed with tension!

“Jooddak…?”

A woman sprawled on the floor mumbled as she looked at me.

With pale skin and cloudy white hair, she gazed at me with red eyes.

“The I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire?”

The owner of the abandoned castle and the Disruption Deputy.

Erzebet was half collapsed on the ground.

*

A woman dressed in a luxurious dark outfit was sprawled on the floor.

A peculiar woman with her shoes off, wriggling her bare feet, stared at me intently and mumbled weakly.

“I’m, I’m hungry…”

Her droopy eyes carried a gloomy expression.

So, the cold beauty known for causing trouble was actually a Deputy? I didn’t even have time to think about that.

“Why are you telling me this while staring at me?”

The progenitor of vampires, the Deputy, was apparently starving right at this moment.

And the fact that she was staring at me was ringing alarm bells in my head.

It was a mistake to enter through the portal in the first place.

I should have been more careful.

This was basically like a delicious steak being delivered to me without any effort!

“Just a sip will do…”

Just one sip, and I would drain every last drop.

Suddenly, a phrase flashed in my mind.

[Title: The First Admin Gathering…jpg]

Author: Jooddak*

(A meme of Jooddak raising a wine glass, with only bones remaining)

Ah, lol, I could have lived a bit longer, what a pity.

[Recommended 1321] [Not Recommended 9999+]

– No, my beautiful Jooddak!!!!

– Socializing is a reason for a ban, right!

– ??? What the heck happened?

“No, that can’t happen!”

I haven’t finished reading my concept article yet.

I couldn’t die like this in a place like this.

“Go, Holy Sword!”

– Woohh

Just in time, the Holy Sword swiftly charged toward the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire!

“Ugh, go away!”

– Bang!

And it flew directly into her flailing hands, delivering a holy sword blow.

The Dwarven famous sword seemed frightened by the scene, flying nearby to hide as if it were a sword statue.

“Oh, that’s right.”

These guys were the ones who slacked off during the Adrian assassination attempt, right?

“Don’t come any closer.”

I aimed the shotgun at the head of the approaching I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire.

In front of the shotgun, everyone is equal.

As I was about to ban a Deputy, I hesitated for a moment, then pulled down the gun.

Instead, I opened the marketplace and swiftly purchased something.

[Beef Blood Soup 600g x5] – 15p

Guaranteed fresh!

Delicious!

You can easily make it yourself!

Impressive!

“Anyway, I can’t escape alone.”

The abandoned castle was filled with all kinds of curses.

Even if I incapacitated the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire, I doubted that I could escape this place.

First, I needed to revive the half-conscious I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire and get the portal opened again.

Now wasn’t the time to be stingy with points.

Additionally, I purchased a pot, portable gas burner, ladle, bowl, and all other necessary ingredients.

“Cough.”

At that moment, the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire, who had been creeping toward me, fainted from iron deficiency.

Now was my chance!

I immediately started making the instant meal kit.

It didn’t even take long.

Just open the meal kit, add ingredients, and it’s done.

[Blood Pack (Random Blood Type)] – 50p

[Bought 3, delivery completed!]

Just in case, I ordered some blood packs too.

As I was finishing up the cooking, the smell must have drawn the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire back to consciousness.

“Huh?”

What she saw in front of her was a bowl of beef blood soup.

Perhaps she had been starving for too long, she seemed to scrutinize the soup for a while, then reached out her hand.

“Mmm…”

With her bare hands.

The moment she bit into a chunk of beef blood.

“It’s delicious…!”

Life returned to the eyes that had lost focus in the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire.

She widened her eyes in surprise, staring at the chunk of beef blood.

“How…?”

It’s blood, but it’s in jelly form.

Moreover, the soup, made with various ingredients, could not possibly taste bad.

“It’s blood, but it’s delicious! Yum!”

“Oh wow.”

The I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire, not wanting to waste the opportunity to taste again, buried her head in the bowl.

She seemed to lick the bowl clean, then with a disappointed expression, our eyes met.

“Jooddak?”

The I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire blinked several times, looking between the soup and me alternately.

Then she suddenly grinned like a fox and flashed a sly smile.

“It looks tasty.”

“What, what do you mean?”

I left the blood packs beside me!

But she didn’t even glance at the blood packs.

Instead, she jumped up like a ghost and rushed towards me in a heartbeat.

“Stop, stop! Hands up, or I’ll shoot!”

A chill washed over me, and I aimed the shotgun, but it didn’t seem to matter.

– Shhhhk

“Hyiiik!”

The shotgun was sliced in half right then and there.

As I stood frozen in shock, the I Will Not Die Even If I Am a Vampire quickly pulled me into an embrace!

“This is sexual harassment! Stop!”

“I’ll enjoy this.”

– Crunch!

I should have been more careful.

The moment I realized it, I was bitten on the shoulder.
